Malaysia Police Department facing leadership crisis

Seven top ranking officers in the Malaysia Police Department will be due for retirement before end of year 2006. It is reported in the news that the police department may face a problem in finding suitable candidates to fill their positions. All 7 are holding the rank of Commissioner of Police (CP), while the highest ranking officer amongst the younger remaining officers is Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP). Some of the younger officers have to be promoted soon in order to fill the gap.

Hope the reshuffling at the top of the police force will not affect the performance of the men in the field due to lack of proper supervisions.
